TNMU11T304R-G57 WKP35G milling indexable insert (Tiger‑tec Gold) – Walter Tools, 0° negative, Triangle 60°

TNMU11T304R-G57 WKP35G is a coated carbide milling insert designed for efficient machining of steel and cast iron in general milling applications

• Coated carbide Tiger‑tec Gold technology
• For steel (P) and cast iron (K)
• Triangle 60° form, 0.4 mm corner radius
• Negative 0° relief, stable chip control

High-efficiency milling for steel and cast iron

The combination of Tiger‑tec Gold coating and the WKP35G grade delivers a balance of wear resistance and thermal stability that benefits high-volume production. As a coated carbide solution, the insert is engineered to withstand the heat and abrasion typical when machining steel and cast iron, enabling consistent cutting performance and reduced frequency of tool changes. This translates into measurable improvements in cycle times and overall productivity for batch or continuous operations.

Geometry engineered for predictable chip formation

The insert’s Triangle 60° shape and 0° negative relief provide a robust seating and cutting edge stability, while the 0.4 mm corner radius supports both strength and edge life. The G57 chipbreaker is optimised for controlled chip segmentation when working with tougher materials, reducing the risk of chip entanglement and improving surface finish. The geometry and chip control features together mean fewer interruptions and more predictable machining results.

Practical advantages for workshop and production planning

With a standard thickness of T3 and a stable cutting-edge design, the indexable format enables quick indexing and simple replacement, improving uptime and contributing to cost-efficiency. Predictable wear behaviour under the WKP35G grade supports consistent tool-change intervals, which helps to plan maintenance windows and minimise scrap. For procurement and process planning, Metav Werkzeuge can provide batch supply and technical guidance to match the insert to specific cutters and machining strategies.

Application guidance and material compatibility

This insert is specified for the ISO groups ISO P and ISO K, meaning it is suited to a wide range of unalloyed and alloyed steels as well as various cast iron grades. The Tiger‑tec Gold coating and grade selection promote reliable performance under the common thermal and mechanical stresses of these workpiece families. When selecting cutting parameters, consider machine rigidity, workholding and coolant strategy to make full use of the insert’s corner radius and chipbreaking features for stable, repeatable results.
